Bikes: a bunch.
They're some steel 'North Road' style cruiser bars, flipped and chopped pretty short. They're pretty comfy. Here's a better picture:

That looks great shapelike. The orange
is cheeful, and the hk fenders are super slick.
Here's my townie in near to final build. I need
to build up a front wheel around a longer axle
for a porteur rack.

This is my Lemond Filmore (has Mavic Ellipses and Alien crankset). New bar and stem combo on today. I'll need to buy a new BMX brake lever to put the brake back on. I chopped the bar a couple inches. This is only the beginning... I've ordered a new Brooks saddle and a silver seatpost this morning. Next I'm comtemplating Honjo Fenders (chopped/shortened a little) then possibly a black front rack and basket, fat 32mm tires, promenade bar.
